The new buff UI looks garbage. Stuff like Ezreal's passive is shown over your skills, but if you get ignited, receive Locket's aura, have red/blue, or another debuff like that it goes to the far left of the screen crammed in a corner. Once Qtpie completed his Muramana the icon went to the right of his buff bar, 'cept it's the icon to say if it's on cd or not, so it's always there, and is the same whether it's currently active or not. There's just no way to see properly its state unless your mana drops because of that.
Upon reading it I found the idea superfluous, but seeing it in action it looks arbitrarily and actually doing more harm than good with regard to readibility.

Also I think it says a lot about how badly midlaners have been nerfed when shit like Kat needs a nerf after being nonexistant for like a year and a half.

I don't think kat needed a nerf as much as riot didn't like how people were using her ultimate, as a way to whittle the enemy down in lane so they had to play scared of a gank rather than as a kill method.

i wanna play this patch so badly but im NEVER getting jungle, im so sad right now =(
|
taking smite+machete and coming into bot lane halfway to lvl 2 seemed pretty strong the first time i tried it. got them low when we hit 2 first, pushed then backed and upgraded to stalker's blade, followed by a successful all in with the smite slow.
the other upgrades seem weak enough that the 50% 2 second slow is certainly going to get nerfed.

I just realized for the first time that the DARKNESSS post of the closed thread is a link to the next one. From now on I'll save 2 clicks!

It's not a competitive nerf. I dunno which rank you're at but Katarina was often banned high Elo and still pretty successful, and contrary to Talon if she starts picking up steam everyone will play her, so of course they'll nerf the popular strong champion (well, 'cept Ahri obv.).

Kat has top 5 winrate in anything below diamond on NA if i remember right. And perma ban status in korea. If u notice a bunch of other solo que gods like mumu warwick and rammus also got nerfed.

My God I feel so lost...this change is huge o.o I am level 24 and was just getting used to LoL...well I guess all I can say is just 'LOL'

summoners rift visual update was totally fine and actually felt more smoother but ever since the patch with the new jungle items and such my fps goes down to like 20 in teamfights. I get a lot of teleporting minions. but not champs.
|
Kat is just dumb. No one wants to play against a champ that can snowball so quickly. Yes she has a lot of counterplays but sometimes it is just silly. She resembles old kassadin (though a bit weaker) a lot and no one wants to deal with that shit.

Don't mention it to Riot, I've been wanting no-delay spectator mode for awhile now, I need to shit talk Roffles in real time.
